Chapter 337: Entering the Ancient Ruins
The black shadow disappeared so quickly that Zi Chen, Lan Xi, and the powerhouses of several major forces failed to catch up. However, Zi Chen and Lan Xi quietly tracked her down, and it was relatively easy to find the man in black.
The sky soon brightened, and the barrier outside the ancient ruins was getting weaker and weaker, and it looked like it would disappear before noon. For this reason, the various factions have packed up their things and are ready to enter the ancient ruins at any time.
Thousands of people are parked outside the ancient ruins, ready to enter. Around noon, the barrier was completely gone. The moment the barrier disappeared, the thousands of cultivators who were stationed outside the ancient ruins instantly burst out and swarmed towards the ancient ruins. Zi Chen and Lan Xi followed behind the crowd and also entered the ancient ruins.
Everyone flocked to the ancient ruins, looking at the wide, cold gate that shimmered with purple light, and felt the energy of the terrifying thunder barrier on it, and their hearts were shocked. It seems that even if the barrier is gone, it is not ordinary to enter the ancient ruins.
"Let's go and work together to open up this Wind Court Minefield. But you must be careful, this Wind Court Thunder Domain is endless, it is impossible to be completely destroyed, even if we work together, we can only open a small gap, once it is broken, everyone must hurry up and enter it, the Wind Court Thunder Domain will recover at a very fast speed, everyone had better not risk touching the edge of the Thunder Domain, otherwise it will be scattered!" Gu Yuqing said to everyone with a solemn face. In fact, he hoped that everyone else would die in the Thunder Domain, but he was worried that there would be other emergencies after entering the ancient ruins, and if he left some more people from other forces, he could still use them as cannon fodder at that time, so Gu Yuqing had to give up that fleeting idea.
"This ancient ruin is so powerful? Doesn't it mean that the immortal master can open this gate by cultivating? How can it be ......," a cultivator muttered in surprise on his face.
"Hmph! This is the residence of the ancient gods, how can it be so simple, do you think the relationship between the demon clan and us is so stiff, why did you agree to act with us? It's not because they can't open the entrance to the ancient ruins just because they can't open it.9 It's not because of ......" Gu Yuqing glanced at the chief Taishang Elder Jun of the demon clan not far away, and said mockingly: "Without them, we don't have any chance of winning at all! With the strength of an immortal master, you can indeed enter the ancient ruins through the Wind Court Thunder Domain, but you can only make a small hole that can accommodate a few people. For hundreds of thousands of years, our forces didn't want to monopolize this place, if it was really enough for the immortal master to cultivate, do you think there would be a casual let of people enter here......? In fact, it is impossible to enter this ancient ruin alive at all! Enter one by one, die one by one, and walk alone, and almost no one survives! Do you still think that as long as the immortal master cultivates, you can enter it casually?"
"That's it......" The cultivator's face turned pale after hearing this, his face was full of panic and fear, fortunately he didn't rush forward by himself recklessly, otherwise he would have died!
"Gu Yuqing, having said that, however, I didn't expect that you would actually give up your previous suspicions and cooperate with that old demon woman from the Feiyun Sect. If I'm not mistaken, after the old demon woman failed to snatch the Huoli Radiant Sun Sword last time, she killed the juniors of several of your major sects, and I heard that the three holy sons of your Qingfeng faction all died because of this. I don't know when the Qingfeng Sect was so generous, such an excellent disciple died at the hands of that old demon woman of the Feiyun Sect, you can all ignore your past suspicions and join hands with her to "get through the difficulties together", this deep affection is really enviable!" Jun Wuxian said with a smile for fear that the world would not be chaotic. Now, the forces of the human race here far exceed their demons, and furthermore, the relationship between the human race and the demon race has reached the point of incompatibility, if the forces of the human race are really united, then this trip to the ancient ruins, the people of their demon race will be in danger.
"Why, old man Jun, do you want our Eight Great Sects to have infighting, but we won't be so easily fooled!" Gu Yuqing pulled the corners of his mouth, and looked at Jun Wuxian with a meaningful look in his eyes, Jun Wuxian knew that it was hopeless to provoke, so he closed his mouth.
"Do you want to use me, and don't weigh how many catties and taels you have!" sneered secretly in his heart, Gu Yuqing ignored Jun Wuxian's sowing discord, he wanted to use him to annex the forces of the Feiyun Sect, and at the same time weaken the strength of their Qingfeng Sect, so that the trip to the ancient ruins, their resistance would be much smaller. But he wasn't stupid, although he did hate the old demon woman of the Feiyun Sect, knowing that one of the three holy sons he lost was his proud disciple, this account naturally couldn't be counted like this. But now is not the time for revenge, the most important thing now is to get something from the ancient ruins, which are the key to their development, this matter is more important than anything else.
"After we open the Wind Court Thunder Domain, you will go in immediately, don't hesitate!" Gu Yuqing turned around and told the people of the Qing Wind Sect again, and several powerhouses of the peak cultivation of the Ancient Immortal Venerable mobilized their spiritual power together to attack the Wind Court Thunder Domain of the Ancient Ruins.
Circles of ripples rippled out immediately, and the purple light kept flickering in the air, almost forming a terrifying thunder dragon! In the center of the Wind Court Thunder Domain, a large gap had appeared, and the doors of the two ice sculptures behind it also opened violently.
"Let's go!" I didn't have the heart to take a few more glances at this magnificent thunder and lightning, and everyone rushed to leap in! The lowest cultivation here is also the peak cultivation of the immortal master, and the speed is very fast, but in the blink of an eye, there is no one outside, and the damaged Wind Court Thunder Domain is slowly recovering as before, and the entire ice crystal snow field has regained its previous calm, as if nothing had happened.
Everyone rushed into the ancient ruins in one breath, and the scenery in front of them suddenly blossomed, and when they were awake, they were stunned when they saw the scene in front of them!
In front of them, there was a fiery red magma, the heat wave was rolling, the aura was monstrous, and it was like a huge mountain belly on all sides, and on the other side of the red magma, there were seven dark and bottomless caves, but those seven caves were far away from them, even if they cultivated as high and deep as them, they only saw seven raging points. The cultivation is a little lower, and I only see the fiery red eyes, and I don't find any caves at all!
As soon as they entered here, Zi Chen and Lan Xi knew the routes and mechanisms in the entire ancient ruins, so there was no difficulty for Zi Chen and Lan Xi at all. As for the other major forces, it is not the first time they have entered here, so this first level is still somewhat certain.
Everyone looked at the churning magma, and the expressions on their faces were calm. It's not the first time these people have entered this ancient ruin, and they know a little bit about it. This ancient ruin is like a large labyrinth, and this labyrinth is extremely complex and ever-changing. The entrance changes each time it is opened, and each entrance is different. Moreover, there are thousands of roads in the entire ancient ruins, and you don't know which road leads where, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a trap, run into a trap, and die in it. It's easy to get lost inside the ancient ruins, and it's normal to walk into a dead end.
As soon as they entered here, Zi Chen and Lan Xi felt a dangerous aura. Just as they were about to investigate, the magma that everyone was facing suddenly surged, and seven stone paths appeared from the middle leading to the ten caves on the opposite side. Seven stone paths are located directly above the lava, which is a bit scary to look at. If it was ordinary magma, with the strength of everyone present, it would still not be taken seriously, but the magma that appeared here was obviously not ordinary magma. The magma here, even if the powerhouse of the peak cultivation of the Ancient Immortal Venerable falls, there will be no bones left.
Thinking of Feng Xiaoxiao's words to them, Zi Chen and Lan Xi directly used their powerful soul power to forcibly input their processed map into the mind of the Feiyun Sect's Chief Taishang Elder Wuqin. Sure enough, as Zichen and Lan Xi expected, after Wuqin got the map, she didn't show anything abnormal. It's just that when everyone chose the cave and prepared to go, Wuqin and the people of the Feiyun Sect did not hesitate to choose a path that Zichen and Lan Xi had specially designed for Wuqin Ya.
In addition to the group of people from the Feiyun Sect such as Wuqin who took the leftmost road, Zhong Lixu and other members of the Yanfeng faction who had always had a good relationship with Wuqin naturally also took the leftmost road. These were all expected by Zi Chen and Lan Xi, and to the surprise of the two, the three hidden families also followed Wuqin and the others to choose the path on the far left.
The requirement of this level is to go to the other end, but this seemingly simple requirement is extremely difficult for everyone present. This place is completely forbidden, and after everyone enters here, even their cultivation is restricted to a certain extent, and in this case, they can only rely on their own legs to walk to the opposite side. Under such circumstances, they have to endure the test of this scorching heat, and for those cultivators whose cultivation is lowered, it is somewhat unbearable.
That's not the hardest part, though. But when everyone walked to the center of the magma, a very cold wind suddenly drifted from the opposite side, which was especially impressive in such a hot environment. The unfathomable dark cavern gave everyone present a very bad feeling, as if countless white bones had been buried here, and the yin wind roared like a beast, low and powerful, with a raging and violent aura, and came from afar. For all of them, they had only heard of this entrance, and in fact, none of the people present had experienced it themselves. As for the horror of this entrance, everyone present really only knows one and does not know the other. Because it is recorded in ancient books, the danger faced by this entrance is really different every time you enter.
Suddenly, a voice from Ryuryu's father came from the dark cave, and when they heard this sound, everyone almost instinctively counted down with cold hairs all over their bodies, and goosebumps stood up. Gu Yuqing, Jun Wuxi, Yan Haotian and the others, who were the strongest, took the lead and frowned sternly, and shouted to the people behind them: "Everyone be careful if there is any movement! Prepare for battle!"
